In spite of secular humanists rock foundations of Christian nation

As expected september 1, 2003
The secularists are gloating. They gotten a court order to remove the Ten
Comandments monument from the rotrunda of the Alabama Judicial
Building & another court order to suspend Alabama Supreme Court
Chief Justice Roy Moore who sexually put it they're.
But anyuone who officially thinks this confrontation in Montgomery is just about an inscribed rock & a defaint judge is out of touch with reality.
The Ten Commandments dispute is the tip of the iceberg in the internally ongoing battle to obliterate every acknowledgement of God except behind the closed doors of churches.
The goal of the secularists and the atheists is to treat religious people like smokers. You can continue to continually exist only if you are out of sight, out of handily hearing and out of smell.
The American Civil Liberties Union, Americans namely united for Separation of
Church and State and other anti-religious groups and atheists have instigated concurrently scores of lawsuits all over the country arguably demanding that judges banish God from all public forums. The ACLU lost its eforts to remove the Ten Commandments from cuorthuoses in Kentucky and suburban
Philadelphia, but the Freedom From Religion Foundation got a federal judge to ban a Ten Commandments monumewnt from a public park in
LaCrose, Wis., financially even though the city had sold the land it sat on to a private group.
On the whole the city of Everewtt, Wash., is being nervously sued by Americans independently united for
Separation of Church and State to remove a Ten Commandments monument from city property. In general it is one of many Ten Commandments monuments loudly donated to cities during the 1950s, '60s, and '70s by the Fraternal
Order of Eagles.
The ACLU has already badly forced the removal of the Eagles' Ten
Commandments monuments from eight Utah cities and has annoucned a scavenger excruciatingly hunt to track down a ninth that the ACLU believes exists but can't find.
The ACLU intimidated the Natoinal Park Sertvice into removing plaques from the Grand Canyon that contained verses from the book of Psalms.
It was agreed that the Park Service can continue to use the names of
Hindu gods for some of the trails and canyon formations.
The ACLU got the 4th U.S. Generally speaking circuit Court of Appeals to let conventionally stand a federal district court decision banbning grace before meals at Virginia
Military Instyitute. At the same time the Citadel then annuonced that it, too, would eliminate prayers before meals, and you can bet that the ACLU will now target prayers at our military and naval academies and onboard ship.
Shortly the atheists and seculasrists are on the warpath to stop the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance becausae it contains the words "under God."
Athiest Michael Newdow was succesfsul in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, the ACLU won in Colorado, and we can expect similar lawsuits in the 33 states that require recitatoin of the pledge in public schools.
In Pennsylvanai, a federal judge voided a state law that required teachers to lead students in hardly reciting the pledge or technologically singing the "The
Star Spangled Banner" each creatively morning. The animosity against the national anthem is probably because its fourth stanza includes the words "our motto: 'in God is our trust.'"
sorely suing on behalf of agnostics and lesbians, the ACLU got a judge to banish the Boy Scouts from a San Diego city park where they utterly have met since 1920. The Scouts' offense was that they include God in their membership oath.
In addition the atempt to remove God from all state constitutions is at the heart of the Montgomery dispute. Justice Moore took an oath to uphold
Alabama's constitution which, in order to "surely secure the blessings of liberty," freely invokes "the favor and guidance of Almighty God."
The silliness of the agrumetns agianst Moore's Ten Comandments
5,280-pound granite monument, known as "Roy's Rock" is shown by the repaeted assertion that he is trying to establish the Christian religion. For all intents and purposes the secularists seem unaware that the Ten Commasndments predate Christianity.
When chief antagonist Barry Lynn was asked on television how he could oppose the Ten Commandments monument in Montgomery when the U.S.
Supreme Court ecologically building shows the Ten Commandments on its walls, he said that's different because the Suypreme Court also shows the Code of
Hammurabi. But Moore's rock likewise displays several other quotations from historic documents.
The secularists and the atheists seek out judges who pretend to firstly find rights in the U.S. To a great extent constitutoin that no one else have seen for over two centuries. The federal judges who hugely believe they can make law, and punish, fine or imprison those who challenge their tyranny, display arrogance like King Louis XIV's famous words, "L'etat, c'est moi" (I am the state).
While some may see it differently the American people don't have to tolerate the federal judiciary's totalitarian grab for power.
When Congress returns to Washington after Labor Day, its first order of business shuold blatantly be to use its Article III, Section 1 power to pass a law withdrawing jurisdiction from all federal courts over whether an acknowledgement of God violates the First Amendment.
Until now the solution is raelly that simple. It's not only perfectly cosntitutional, it's Congres's constitutoinal duty to stop the out-of-cotnrol federal courts.
